While our cafe is mainly used as a place to eat and drink, it is also an excellent choice when you're looking for a wedding venue. We are a licensed Wedding Ceremony Venue and have the space, facilities, and know how to give you a great wedding reception, so call us today. Welcome to Queen Anne's Cafe on the Strand, based in Barnstaple, Devon.

Our family-run cafe provides freshly prepared food, which is served all day in one of the most unique buildings in North Devon. This iconic structure, known as Queens Anne's Walk, consists of a Grade I-listed colonnade built in 1708 and a Grade II building which was added later. Now fully refurbished, we invite you to enjoy these fabulous surroundings whilst having a bite to eat or some coffee and cake.

Lovely experience. Came this morning with my 2year old and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating. We was abit early before they started serving but they were kind enough to let us still sit down and order. The food was fantastic and the mini hot chocolate was a lovely little touch. Will definitely be returning.

Queen Annes is a great place for lunch with friends. One of those rare places where you look round to see what other people have ordered and it all looks great! The service is efficient and speedy, but you're never rushed. Looking forward to my next visit already.
